Sources of seasonal water supply forecast uncertainty during snow drought in the Sierra Nevada
Uncertainty attribution in water supply forecasting is crucial to improve forecast skill and increase confidence in seasonal water management planning. We develop a framework to quantify fractional forecast uncertainty and partition it, and demonstrate the uncertainty framework with statistical runoff models.

Resilience Is Not Enough: Toward a More Meaningful Rangeland Adaptation Science
Transdisciplinary science and management in rangelands requires more than just conceptual social-ecological frameworks. Additional methodological concepts need to include: 1) relationship building; 2) shared meaning making; and 3) a commitment to continual conversations and learning.
